Plot

Short Summary

Bo, Kenzi and Dyson go undercover in a troubled youth camp to investigate a series of deaths and discover that a Tikbalang is killing them and stop it. However, it had a human mate who attacks Lauren in revenge, but Bo saves her. Tamsin is contacted by a bounty hunter friend who informs her that someone Tamsin is working for wants her to bring Bo to him. Tamsin does not want to and resists until her friend is killed. Tamsin plants doubt in Lauren about Bo and as a result of this and the attack on her, Lauren and Bo part ways in their relationship. As all of this unfolds, Tamsin prepares to capture Bo and take her to the one that wants Bo.

Detailed Summary

The episode opens with Bo (Anna Silk) in her bedroom looking at herself in a mirror and commenting that she "feels different." As she continues to look in the mirror she says she looks good and her eyes glow and she adds: "Oh, this is going to be fun." Bo seems to be mesmerized for a moment and then Kenzi (Ksenia Solo) rushes in telling Bo that someone is trying to break in. Bo just smiles and then there is the sound of someone, or something, trying to break in. Bo finds a baseball bat, but Kenzi looks at her and asks: "I'm sorry, am I interrupting your softball game? Could you please grab a big girl weapon?" Bo's answer is that she is a "big girl's weapon and what? You think I can't handle a few robbers?" Kenzi doesn't believe that it is robbers saying that someone is coming for Bo because she and Dyson "cheated on your Fae finals." Bo isn't happy about this and tells Kenzi: "Hey! I did not cheat!" Kenzi continues to freak out telling Bo that there's probably a Fae out there looking for revenge looking to take their skin, or their tonsils. They hear someone trying to open the door to Bo's bedroom and open it to find Lauren (Zoie Palmer) there carrying a breakfast tray which falls to the floor, dumping the contents all over the place. Bo and Lauren look at each other for a moment before Lauren says: "Ta-da." Lauren and Bo then start picking up the pieces as Kenzi leaves the scene. Lauren comments that surprising Bo with breakfast in bed went a lot better in her mind and Bo laughs for a moment. Lauren then asks Bo about the Dawning and Bo tells her that since it happened she feels like has been reborn, that she feels like she's had a moment where she now knows that she is part of something bigger now. Lauren starts to tell Bo something but Kenzi rushes in and picks up her sword, calling it Geraldine. Bo embraces the two of them telling them both that she loves them. She calls Lauren "the domestic Goddess" and tells Lauren that it is her turn. Kenzi looks shocks and asks if Bo is going to cook. Bo tells Kenzi that she is fairly sure she can "crack an egg." She picks up the tray with all of the broken dishes and comments: "How hard can it be?" as she rushes away. Kenzi tells Lauren that: "This is not the Bo that I recall." She then asks if this could be a "body swap, Morrigan parasite, last night's sushi which I totally might have gotten at the dollar store." Lauren smiles and replies: "The Dawning has changed her and we knew it would. The important thing is that she is still our Bo. Right?" Kenzi still looks concerned but answers: "Yes."

The scene moves to a clearing in a forest were two teenagers are sitting and talking together. After a while Matt (Craig Arnold) convinces Della (Brittany Allen) to take her top off, lay down, and allow him to blindfold her. He tells her that doing so heightens her other senses and then starts to breath on her gently before running what she thinks is a blade of grass over her chest, but he tells her that it is a feather. Then a shadow moves over them both and Matt is pulled away. Della calls out his name, but Matt does not answer her. Eventually she sits up and yells out that what he did wasn't funny. She then puts her top on and storms off, stepping on some kind of wooden object on the ground as she does. Matt is then shown staked to the ground, leaves stuffed into his mouth and some kind of creature hovering over him.

After the opening credits, Bo and Kenzi are at the Dal Riata with Dyson (Kristen Holden-Ried). Kenzi looks into a file and seems very squeamish about what is in it asking: "Where is this camp and why does Freddy Kruger live there?" Bo takes the file and as she looks at the information inside comments that they are teenagers with "crazy rap sheets." Dyson explains that most of them had slipped through the system and were fending for themselves, Kenzi's attention being drawn back to things as he does. Bo asks why Tamsin isn't involved and Dyson brushes this off saying that Tamsin is off for a few days "dealing with a dustup at a Dark Fae bar." Bo laughs and says that it is her fault, referring to the fight that she and Tamsin had during Fae-ge Against The Machine. When both Kenzi and Dyson just look at her, Bo quickly adds: "Funny story, great ending, another time, why do you need us?" Dyson tells them both that the latest death happened that morning and while Dyson investigates he needs some backup as well to protect the other campers. He asks Kenzi how she feels about "tapping into your inner juvie?" Kenzi scoffs: "Camp's really not my thing." Dyson just looks at Kenzi saying: "Come on." Kenzi throws her hands up and resigns herself to "make it work." Dyson thanks her and then turns to Bo who pleads: "Please say camp counsellor." Dyson laughs: "If you wanted to be a camp counsellor." Bo is thrilled noting that: "Yes! I am awesome with that! Camp Chipewa voted most popular counsellor three years in a row!" as she pokes Kenzi in the ribs. Dyson shakes his head: "Should have known." Bo rushes off, saying that she has to tell Lauren, and Kenzi tells Bo that she'll be right along before sitting down with Dyson and looking at him intently. Dyson asks: "What's that look for?" Kenzi tells him: "This look wonders how the wolfman is doing post Bo's Dawning?" Dyson looks away before answering: "Fine." Kenzi makes a buzzer noise and tells Dyson: "I'm afraid that was not the answer we were looking for!" Dyson tries to convince Kenzi that he is okay, but she isn't convinces, slapping Dyson in the shoulder before leaving Dyson at the bar alone.

Bo is at home with Lauren, telling her about the case as she packs and adding that she never had anything like the situation she is going into at Camp Chipewa. Lauren comments that she is glad she went to Space Camp when she was younger. Bo seems very hyper and excited as she continues to pack her things, not at all like she usually is. Bo then asks Lauren is she is worried about her being with Dyson, adding that Lauren should know that she can trust her. Lauren shrugs: "I was just hoping we would have this weekend to talk." Bo explains that she is sorry but also that she "sort of needs this. To taks something down that's big and ferocious and murdery." Lauren tells Bo: "We're been out of sync lately, that's all." This gets through to Bo and she tells Lauren: "I know. And that is my fault. But now that the Dawning is over, things are going to get better. I promise. You know I would much rather spend the weekend with you." Lauren does not look happy as Bo presses on: "Blame Tamsin!"

Elsewhere, Tamsin is walking past a building when someone jumps out behind her and places a knife to her throat. Tasmin calls out: "Acacia?" This person that holds the knife to Tamsin is in fact Acacia (Linda Hamilton) who greets her: "Hey Lady." before releasing her. She berates Tamsin, telling het that she taught her never to drop her guard, Tamsin's answer is that she also was taught to "respect my elders." Acacia calls Tamsin a "cheeky bitch" before she asks Tamsin how she's been and the two laugh together. Tamsin then asks: "What brings you to my corner of our dark little worlds?" Acacia answers: "I am here to deliver a message. He knows you've found her." and hands Tamsin a tarot card of The Wanderer. Adding that it is "time to finish the job."

After another commercial, Bo and Kenzi arrive at the Youth Camp and discover that it isn't the kind of camp they expected, Kenzi commenting that: "I think this one begins with the letters POW." After looking at the building for a moment, Kenzi adds: "This is nature? Discovery Channel led me to believe there was more green." Bo then pushes Kenzi towards the door telling her: "You go first. Go ahead."

The scene shifts to Bo in her office with Della sitting on the other side of the desk from her asking: "Camp Chipewa?" Bo is slightly embarrassed and answers: "When I took the job, I thought it would be another kind of camp." Della asks: "Devoid of murder you mean?" Bo tells her that she is sorry about Matt and asks if Della wants to talk about what she saw, but Della tells Bo that no one cares about what someone like her saw. Bo tells her: "It might be hard for you to believe but I am someone like you." Della asks if Bo has ever stabbed anyone and Bo looks uncomfortable as she admits she has. Della then tells Bo that her eyes were closed and she didn't see anything. After telling Bo about what they were doing and how it was supposed to make her other senses better, Bo asks if it did and Della tells Bo that she smelled smoke "like when you are straightening your hair and you burn it." She also tells Bo that there is "something about this place that is just off." Bo tells Della that if she does want to talk, she'll be there for her. Della asks if she can leave and Bo tells her she can. but before she goes, Della thanks Bo for listening to her.

Dyson in the meantime is at the place where Matt's body was found with a woman. Dyson asks if there are any registered Fae in the area who act in this manner but is told that there aren't any that have been ruled out already. Dyson is told that each killing was different, one stomped to death, another burned, and a few were strangled. Dyson asks where she was at the time of the attacks and she explains that she was "here" as she is attached to the grounds and cannot leave them. Dyson makes the connection that she is a Lares, the protector of the lands the camp is built on. Dyson picks up an item similar to that Della stepped on earlier in the episode, but she does not know what it is, but Dyson thinks he might and when he is told that the campers are allowed to run free in the area, suggests that they not be allowed to.

The scene shifts to a barracks in the building where a group of teens are milling around as Kenzi walks into the room. One of the teens comments that Kenzi is a "narc" and then two of them begin grilling Kenzi to see if she is really "one of them" or not. When asks what she is in for, Kenzi's answer is "theft, explosives, devil may care attitude," Kenzi is asked about what goes into a pipe bomb, she answers Talcum, then is asked which lock is easiest to pick, Kenzi's answer is "Rim." She then turns the tables on the two questioning her and asks what they should do when they break into a 1992 Jaguar and the alarm goes off. The one teen that tries to answer Kenzi shoots down with more knowledge than they have before asking "are we cool?" Kenzi passes the test and shakes hands with one teen and notices that he has a tattoo on his arm. He explains that it is the name of his girlfriend but Kenzi cannot read the word and wonders if the writing is Klingon before asking what they "do around here for kicks."

Tasmin and Acacia are seen sitting on the back of a pickup truck in the middle of a field drinking beer. Acacia comments: "You lead one battalion astray and the entire war of 1812 goes to the Canadians." Tamsin replies "Well they wanted it more and you were the one that brought the maple syrup whisky." Acacia agrees, but also notes that she "brought Tecumseh" to which Tamsin laments "now there was a General." and Acacia answers "there was a man." Acacia then asks "how much longer are we going to pretend you aren't in big trouble." Tamsin shrugs and claims that she will figure something out. When asked what that might be, Tamsin suggests: "I don't know. Maybe I'll find someone else he wants more and make a trade." When Acacia asks who "he" wants more, Tamsin does not have an answer. Tamsin tries to reason with Acacia saying that Bo is not "a skip" and asking her to remember what happens when they deliver someone to "him." Acacia's answers: "We get paid." Acacia reminds Tamsin "That's what we do. We find people and we bring them in." Tamsin tells Acacia that Bo has been through the Dawning and that makes her more powerful, however Acacia has a solution for this. She hands Tamsin a small vial with a stopper in it and explains: "He has though of that. Rune glass. One hair from someone she loves, two hairs from someone she trusts and 3 from her own head. Put them in the bottle and the Druid will do the rest." When Tasmin asks "do the rest how?" Acacia tells her: "Bitch, do I look like a wizard? I don't know. Put the whammy on her. Make her putty in your hands. I took this gig because I thought it would be easy money taking sense into you. Don't let me down. And don't get any deeper in this than you have to. Just bring in the girl okay?" Tamsin is not happy about any of this and only answers: "Okay." Acacia then comments "it's a beautiful day, I think I'll walk." before she leaves Tamsin beside the pickup truck alone.
